Storico tifoso granata, ex presidente e fondatore del Club Fedelissimi Granata, Ginetto Trabaldo aveva 86 anni
The entire Granata world mourns the passing, at the age of 86, of Ginetto Trabaldo. A true icon of organized cheering, he founded together with his friend Piero Gay (who left us in 2020) the first organized group of supporters in Italy: first, the “Gruppo sostenitori Granata” was born, which later became the “Club Fedelissimi granata,” a group that contributed decisively to making the cheering of the Maratona curve the most beautiful ever, thanks also to the unforgettable choreographies by Serafino Geninetti, known to everyone as “il Pittore.” Choreographies, colors and moments certainly remained indelible in the memory of every Granata fan who was lucky enough to experience that wonderful period. To the Trabaldo family, our Editorial Staff’s deepest condolences.

Also Torino, with. a note on its website, wished to remember Trabaldo: “President Urbano Cairo and the entire Torino Football Club are close with affection to the Trabaldo family in the memory of Ginetto Trabaldo, a pivotal figure in the history of Granata supporters. It was he who founded, along with Piero Gay, in 1951 the Gruppo Sostenitori Granata, later to become Fedelissimi Granata, Italy’s first organized group of supporters. To his family, loved ones and many friends the deep condolences and warm embrace of the Granata world.”
